220 Hands up
"Those stars, they seem so close, they seem to be able to catch them with just a hand, but no matter how hard we try, we can't catch them. ”
"Say, what is the principle of this?"
Adlina raised her head like this, quietly staring at the sky, as if talking to herself.
Hodden also tilted his head to look at the starry sky, "Isn't it romantic at all if I say that the stars are billions of miles away from us, or even more distant, and that the visuals we produce are all spatial illusions created by our own eyes?"
"Huh. It's not romantic at all. Adlina laughed, but her voice did not look careless, and her eyes did not move, "Do you believe it? There are countless unknowns hidden in this starry sky, and those mysterious unknowns may contain the truth about life." ”
"I mean, the secrets of our world, the secrets of psionic energy, and the secrets that have disappeared. ”
Adriana's voice lowered slightly, and a soft voice surged in the breeze, as if she was afraid of being overheard.
Hodden retracted his gaze and turned to look at Adlina, a look of inquiry flashing in the depths of his eyes, "Because of the evil god?"
Adlina also withdrew her gaze and met Hoden's eyes generously, "What, are you interested?" without answering the question directly.
Hoden pursed the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "I am interested in exploring the mysteries and unknowns of the world, because I believe that the world is far beyond our knowledge. Most of those who claim to have the ultimate truth will eventually be abandoned by the wheels of the times. ”
He meant that.
Adriana's eyes suddenly brightened, and excitement and excitement surged hotly, but she suppressed her excitement and changed the subject instead, "Be careful, if those people in the auditorium hear this, you will become a street rat and never find a friend again." ”
"Ha, it's good not to have such a friend. Hodden said with ease.
Adlina looked at Hodden carefully, her complacent demeanor was not fake at all, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't help but fly.
Adelina was about to say something when a shout came from behind her, breaking the silence of the starry sky, "Ade!"
Reflexively, Adlina turned her head to look over, and then she could see a figure standing on the small balcony, waving vigorously at her.
"Ah, it's Elena. Scratching her head in annoyance, Adlina walked back quickly, but then realized something, and stopped again, "Can you not tell Elena about what just happened......? I mean, I really, really don't want to hear her nag anymore. ”
"Which part do you mean, the part of the letter tower, or the part of the balcony?" said Hoden, with a smile in his eyes.
Adlina rolled her eyes, "Haha, it's hilarious. ”
"Ade!" Elena's voice came eagerly again.
Hodden also followed quickly, and motioned to Adlina with his eyes, "It seems that it should be urgent." ”
Adlina muttered, "Her affairs are always urgent." But after all, the footsteps trotted quickly in the direction of the balcony.
"My feet. I sprained my ankle. Elena said to Adlina as she approached.
At this time, Adlina noticed that Elena was leaning on the pillar, standing a little awkward, and Adlina was about to pull open her skirt to take a look, but she didn't expect Elena to directly pat the back of Adrina's hand, and then gestured with her eyes, and Adrina noticed Holden with it.
Elena gritted her teeth and gestured to Howlen lightly, barely squeezing out a smile, but still maintaining a ladylike posture to complete the greeting.
But at this time, there was no time to introduce herself, and Elena lowered her voice and said to Adriana, "How should I go back now?"
Hodden could feel Elena's overflowing anxiety, but Adlina didn't realize it, "I can only take the carriage, is there any other way?, ah, you can also spend the night here, there is food, there is a sofa, I think you can support it all night, and let my mother come and take us home tomorrow." ”
If eyes could kill, Elena had killed Adlina five times now.
Barely maintaining a ladylike posture, Elena shook her head at Adlina and whispered in a low voice, "The carriage is too expensive for us to afford. ”
"Well, let me escort you. Hoden stepped forward and said with a smile, "If we leave now, the traffic should not be congested, and I can call the carriage to the door of the auditorium and pick you up." ”
"Oh, no, no, no. Elena waved her hand repeatedly, "Thank you very much for your generosity, but we can't accept it." ”
Hodden glanced at Adriana, and sure enough, he saw that Adlina was rolling her eyes, and her smile couldn't help but rise, but she still said seriously to Elena, "Please accept my kindness." The carriage was forcibly rented by my brother, and I was worried that it would be a bit wasted, but now it seems that my brother should be the one who has the real vision. ”
Holden did not intend to be a handsome man, and frankly admitted that his carriage was rented.
Elena's tone softened slightly, and the alienation in her eyes dissipated slightly, but she still shook her head, "I can't do this to you. It's only been a short time since the prom started, and you've been through the accident just now, so you'll want to stay here. I can't deprive you of the fun. ”
Hoden chuckled directly, "My mission for tonight has been accomplished. Trust me, I, like Ade, would love to get out of here early. ”
Adlina didn't say much, just threw a sentence lightly, "Do you have any other options?"
Elena was immediately choked, looked at Adlina speechlessly, and cursed with her eyes.
Adlina had a calm face, and she didn't care at all.
......
Twenty minutes later, Hodden and the carriage arrived at the main entrance of the auditorium, and Adlina walked over with Elena in her arms.
Hodden took the initiative to get out of the car, and with a gentle twist of his right wrist, a wind element fused with the element of light wrapped around Elena's ankle, and then opened the car door and stretched out his right hand as a handrail to help Elena get into the car.
Elena showed a little surprise, her ankles were a little lighter, and she could feel a little warmth, and the slight pain did stretch a lot, this time she didn't refuse Horden's kindness again, and with the help of Adlina and Horden, she stepped into the carriage.
Adlina followed closely, her eyes lifted up, looked at Holden, lowered her voice and hurriedly said, "Thank you very much", and then quickly got into the car.
Hodden chuckled lightly, got into the carriage in the midst of many eyes, closed the door, and then the carriage went away—
Apparently the students are still not ready to leave, and the king and queen of the back-to-school ball have not yet been revealed, but the night of the prom belonging to Horgan has finally come to an end.
At least, the carriage really came in handy.
